Welcome to the show, I'm Jordan Harbinger.

As always, I'm here with producer Jason DeFilippo.

On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills of the world's

most brilliant and interesting people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that

you can use to impact your own life and those around you.

We want to help you see the Matrix when it comes to how these amazing people think and

behave and we want you to become a better thinker.

If you're new to the show, we've got episodes with spies and CEOs, athletes, and authors,

thinkers, and performers, as well as toolboxes for skills like negotiation, public speaking,

body language, persuasion, and more.

So if you're smart and you like to learn and improve, then you'll be right at home here

with us.

Today on the show, Shaka Sengar, he was in the hole in prison for seven years, 4.5 of those

consecutive.

While there, he started to take action to improve his life.

He did tons of reading to keep himself informed, keep his mind right, treated every day

like it was a university.

Get up on time, spend an hour on each different subjects.

And when he got out, they said he'd be back in prison in six months.

But instead, he wrote a best-selling book, got interviewed by Oprah, gave a TED Talk, and

hung out with the president.

Really amazing guy.
